Cafe Dodici is a small-to-mid-sized restaurant based in Washington, Iowa. It was founded by Lorraine Williams, her Italian husband Alessandro Scipioni, and Tsalika Drown, with a mission to restore through food, offering wholesome meals served in a thoughtful dining setting. The business operates within the restaurant industry and aims to provide more than sustenance by replenishing energy for diners. The team is described as a local operation, suggesting a close-knit staff. In late November 2025, it partnered with Mphawks to host a four-course, wine-pairing dinner that featured aspiring chefs from Mid-Prairie High School, with proceeds supporting the ProStart program. The partnership shows the restaurant's involvement in community education and fundraising beyond ordinary dining.
